Item Description

A classic, sharply terminated, wolframite crystal from this historic tin mining district. The textbook sharp chisel termination rests atop the splendent, stepped-growth prism faces. Both ends are cleaved, but have no impact on the overall very fine quality of this specimen. An impressive and hefty, two-sided crystal from the Art Soregaroli Collection. Wolframite specimens are RARE from this ancient district. Old-time, desirable material. valued $750-900
